Hello Students!
Today we will begin our Into the Wild Journals. Please answer the prompt(s).
We will then look at the claims.
We will read Chapters 1 and 2. Please have these read for tomorrow.
QW:
1) Think about your experience hiking, backpacking, and/or existing in the wild. What are the benefits of any one of these activities?
2) Think about some alternative plans you might have to beginning college immediately after high school. What might you do? Why would you do it, and for how long could you see yourself doing that activity?
3) Think about an experience you have had when you were alone and made some misjudgments that could have led to disaster, but didn't. What miscalculations did you make and how did you avoid disaster?
Possible Claims:
1) Chris' idealism lead to his death.
2) Chris made choices that were foolish.
3) Chris genuinely loved the outdoors and wanted to live without the trappings of society.
4) Chris risked his life, no matter the cost, to find out who he was and that should be valued.
